On March 29th an Air Canada Airbus A320 exited the runway while landing in Halifax. Of the 138 people onboard, 23 were slightly injured. An investigation has been launched by the Transport Canada Civil Aviation authority.

Dassault has delivered the Indian Air Force’s (IAF) first two upgraded Mirage 2000’s. The fighter has a new cockpit, improved radar, and more. This delivery is a good omen for the 126 Rafale contract at present under discussion with India.

The co-pilot of the Germanwings A320 was alone in the cockpit during the last eight minutes of flight 4U 9525. The captain had been absent and could not regain access. Does access to commercial aircraft cockpits require a little deciphering ?

At a press conference held today (26th March), the prosecutor of Marseille (sourthern France), delivered the last elements of the investigation into the crash of the Germanwings Airbus A320. The hypothesis is that the first officer had "the will to destroy the aircraft".

According to the New York Times, one of the two pilots was outside the cockpit, and unable to regain access. According to the CVR (Cockpit Voice Recorder) recording, he repeatedly knocked on the door, but without response.

A black box recovered, together with its cockpit voice recorder (CVR), damaged but usable, that, in essence, is the information with which we came away from the press conference organized by the French Civil Aviation Authority (DGAC), on 25th March.
